Two of the best dressed at the CFDA’s were also winners that evening. A newly brunette Mary Kate, and Ashley Olsen in their own design looked cool but elegant. I’ve never a met sequin dress that I didn’t like, so my other notable mention goes to Rachel Zoe who looked so glam in her black shimmery gown.

Here we go–NYFW starts off AW12 season! Front and centre for all the action were some were a few fashion forward celebrities taking in all that awaits us for the fall. I’m sure Olivia will be jetting out of NY in time for London which officially starts on Friday.

Say what you will about MK and Ashley, but there’s just something about them that’s so interesting to me. These tiny billionaires with such odd ball personal style, especially Mary Kate, messy blonde hair, and massive eyes. I love seeing pictures of them (I bought their book Inspiration as soon as it came out).

Last night in New York the much anticipated CFDA’s (Council of Fashion Designers of America) took place. Among those in attendance were models, designers, editors, stylists, and celebrities-a who’s who of the fashion industry. The evening showcased AW 10 collections of some of the nominees like Marc Jacobs and Alexander Wang.

Fewer celebrities were at the International Collections this season. Factor in the weather-New York, the Oscars-during Paris and money-which is affecting all designers during the current economic climate. However, the main fashionistas did not let anything deter them. Celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe definitely would not miss, it is her job after all.

London has been the place to be for the past few days. The BAFTA’s, Elle Style Awards, and London Fashion Week have meant an influx of American celebrities. My favourite twins we’re seen at a BAFTA event as well as at the Style Awards looking fashion forward as usual.

It comes around every season. Can be seen on runways in all four of the fashion capitals. It’s the smoky eye. This seasons adaptation is imprecise, melted, and pillow smudged. Always dark, sooty with a lived in look. At Cavalli the melted look was achieved by applying Nars Cream Eyeshadow in Zardoz over the top of a pencil.
